I have been lurking as a guest for quite a while. Since I had to join the board to continue reading the posts, I thought I may as well introduce myself.

I stumbled across this site while looking for the Maryland Independent online. I never did find the newspaper, but you all are quite informative! I was born and raised in Maryland and I now reside in the wild, wild, west! I'm a 30 something conservative female with a warped sense of humor. I guess you could call me one of those radically right Republicans who doesn't care if our air and water are dirty! :rolleyes:

Anyway, I love to talk and I hope you don't mind if I jump in from time to time. Please be gentle with me, I'm sensitive! :wink:

Thanks for the warm welcome!

I reside in Arizona and I love it here! I do miss those yummy Maryland crabs though! :yum: It still amazes me when I see someone walking down the street with a gun strapped on their side - and it's perfectly legal! Needless to say, it does deter crime.

Again, my thanks to giggles04, Sxy Princess, and all the rest for welcoming me. I'm still trying to feel my way around on here. I don't want to offend anyone with my twisted sense of humor and wind up getting a :spank:

We seem to have a lot of that around here. :lol:

I made my first trip to Arizona in April - went to Phoenix, Sedona, Jerome, and the Grand Canyon - beautiful country. Where do you hail from?

Hint Hint Maryland Independent outta be online! I found the following web site almost a year ago and they claimed the Maryland Independent would be online within a few weeks. So far only the classifieds. :rolleyes:

I've tried to explain the beauty to friends and family back east, but I think they will have to make a trip out here to fully understand what I'm talking about. Haven't made it to the Grand Canyon as of yet - we have tentative plans to go there in the Spring. It gets really cold there during the winter!
